PHOENIX, July 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Healthcare is on the verge of big changes, and one company is working with those changes to help those most at risk during the difficult times ahead - healthcare providers. R-C Healthcare Management has worked with hospitals and other organizations for more than two decades, and despite the transitioning atmosphere, they continue to stay ahead of the curve, helping hospitals cover costs at a higher than ever rate.

The Cost of Healthcare Reforms

Over the past several years, the American College of Healthcare Executives has polled hospital CEOs, and for more than a decade, CEOs have been ranking financial challenges as their number one issue. Within that number, Medicaid reimbursement ranked at the top of those financial challenges. That's where R-C Healthcare plays a role.

"From the inception of our company, we saw a need within hospitals to offer specialized consulting services, particularly with an eye toward Medicare reporting. We were the first company to partner with organizations to review their Medicare Wage Index data, and we're continually expanding our services to ensure hospitals remain as profitable as possible," said Arnold Silver, Founder and Chairman.

For hospitals, this has been an incredible opportunity. For another service offered by R-C Healthcare, Recovery of Medicare Advantage bad debt, one hospital gained more than $1 million from a Medicare Advantage carrier over the course of a year. Another contacted R-C Healthcare after reduced reimbursement, and thanks to changes in the Occupational Mix Survey and Wage Index uncovered by the consulting company, was promptly positioned for geographic reclassification.

"We bring expertise to the table most hospitals don't have in house," Mike Webdale, President & CEO "That means you get a second set of eyes on everything, and we have the ability to handle time sensitive projects that your team just can't. It's a great mix, and the change many hospitals need."
